HOW NOT to Get YOUR Nose Broken in STREET FIGHTS 

The guy leaves no option out of his explanations. On point like usual. Cheers

As mentioned before on here, it is faster to attack rather than react. I think you should always be making space as well then follow info as provided as my little saying goes the punch has to reach you to hurt. Great info.

Probably the most useful video channel on youtube

I love this channel because its realistic and common sense.

Great tips man! Thank you

Thank you very much for posting this.A lot of great information shown. Can watch it over and over and find someone new and very important. Thanks again

closest to danger, furthest from harm

great as allways thx

Good advice as usual. Been watchin your videos for years, good common sense instruction and Wing Chun techniques.

very informative ..... thank you.

Practical. "Easy" / simple" and realistic. Great!

Good stuff, thanks!

Great advice as always. So glad I subscribed 😁

Really good !! I had been continplating this inside/outside blocking stuff

Thanks for keeping the tools in my toolbox clean and ready for work Be well my friend and Stay Frosty

Really good advice! As always.

Looks like some great applications of wing chun principles 👍

Very informative. I think it should also be noted that when adrenaline starts flowing and stress goes up, when blocking/on the defense, I believe the defender, especially if operating on a minimum training capacity or experience level, will resort to more gross motor skill movements to block and control an attacker (i.e. grabs, blocking with more than just hand parries, etc). Which is why I like your info on getting in close and controlling the distance. Thank you for these lessons, sir!

This is great. Very understandable to a clumsy person like me.

Love your channel, :) Want to take a minute and thank you for your time and expertise, as well as your realistic situation defensive and counter offensive knowledge. Where I grew up in Oakland CA, we had to adapt to the situation on the street as it would unfold in the moment, as you teach extremally well. Could you please speak on, and help others to understand the possible "bait and switch" scenarios that do occur when an attacker or opponent may lurch their shoulder inward, or from left to right as if they are sending that strike, but pull a fast fake, often dropping the body, or side stepping into an unseen powerful hook, or grab to the body for a body slam. Those fakes if practiced, or done often enough can lead things quickly into an unexpected and dangerous scenario. Lol... what I am getting at, is there a lesson on the "oncoming fake punch" and how to avoid being fooled if at all possible? Thank you for my comment and thank you for all you do to help others protect themselves and to keep themselves safe. :)

Informative and logical Doc P!!! Glad you're re-affirming what I teach my students, especially, using the elbow not only as a shield, but, as a knuckle busting or nerve striking tool of self defense!!! jkd sifu mike goldberg ( Keller, Texas )

I never figured out how to stop getting my nose broken when sparring. You get used to it.

Do a video on how to see if a person is going to hit you. Eyes, hands body stance etc

hands in that position is generally seen as non threatening, might just diffuse a potential altercation,open hands can generally travel faster than balled up fists, open hands allow more options for grappling, palm strikes etc, you might not prevail by running scenarios in your mind and training, if you don't run scenarios, you are likely fail, it sure doesn't hurt to at least think about what you might do, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, thank you!!!!!

When the adrenaline is pumping and there is some fear, you have to train for as much as possible, including blocking on the inside. You can still deflect and bring your other arm up to protect your head anyway, because you miss or just not make it to the outside. But for something like that, I would close the gap and invade the centerline bringing the deflecting hand down to the opponent's head even if he manages to withdraw his strike. My hand is already halfway to his head and inside his guard, so a 'horse punch' would be viable.

I notice you dont advocate leading with a kick. That has been my leading and usually winning move, due to the opponent lowering their arms in effort to deflect the kick. The kick dosnt even need to land, the appearance the kick is coming is enough to initiate the arm drop. Cheers.

Would you agree,, that while training,, holding Mits .. helps with seeing Strikes coming,, because it helped me a lot,, watching body language and stance,,

So much for your Wing Chun structure....energy issuing, breaking down their structure and here we have boxing or some other kind of passive covering... Too bad... Wing Chun does more.

2:09 also step in. You will stand on his side out of the strike zone where he can't hit you, but you will have lots of opportunity's to hurt him. Its 101 in aikibudo.

Nice!Now I just need the video about how to fix it after it’s been broken!

I'm a girl and love these vids

In Krav we always prefer to go to the dead side rather than live side, in case of weapons in other hand, and to make it easier to attack and move past the assailant. That head guarding technique looks like what we do when fighting a standing assailant from the ground to protect against kicks, but I haven’t seen that used in standing. Seems like it would take too long to get a punch out from there, we prefer to redirect, parry, and attack aggressively. A non Krav technique I sometimes play with in sparring is taking punches on the forehead. That part of the skull is strong and a hit there doesn’t rotate your head (as much) for a KO. It’s also good for late reaction and can damage your opponent’s bare hand. Also a last ditch if arms are pinned. Caution that I am not speaking from off-mat experience for any of this.

What I do, is actually I don't move it left/right. I jerk it down, and am back to my guard. I don't know if it's any better than this, but seems to work for me.

Okay

Parry and salute

👍

Yeah wish I had known more about this when I worked nightclubs decades ago. I never got disoriented or let it stop me from fighting but the number of times I've broke my nose in a tussle left me with it pointing a bit to my right side. There goes my chance at being president. Nobody will elect a guy with a crooked nose.

Nice job, just got my BJJ yellow belt. lol, I’m the oldest kid in the class at 58. :)

You have to see the punch first!

As an older woman, without a partner to practice with....and its difficult to see whats going on in videos.... Can you please recommend the absolute simple self defense to always know? Thank you.

Being smashed in the nose really hurts 🤕.

I used something similar when I boxed. 6:25 I bait them to do the 1 - 2 as the right came back I would follow it back towards opponent to the inside with uppercut, left hook, overhand right or just get inside and try to smoother them, I pictured I was stuck to the end of right hand by glue. Once I got his timing down it wasn't that hard and it would make them think twice about the straight right. If he was being a dick I would come back get in a head butt or clip with an elbow.

yes i have gotten my nose broken in a house fight when i was 14 vs someone older than me it had turned my whole world upside down unfortunately to pay for a nose job

Hey did nick lose some weight ?? Good for you bro!

Best way to avoid getting your nose broken? Avoid fighting!

i have been beat up by a groub of 8 people i only had a black eye they tryed to sweep kick me but i was skateboarder so i would just land on my feet and was blocking all the blows good i only got a black eye when i hit back in a guy balls but then the side i hit with was not blocked (i know now how to hit and blcok was 13 then) so i got kickied in the eye if i did not hit back i would not have any thing but do like it i only black eye one guy balls hit really hard

Always been scared of getting a busted nose (bit on the long side). Stayed away from fights all my life.

Thanks, that was nice to watch. For those who doubt that Karate doesn't work: this is application of Heian Nidan / Pinan Shodan, one of the first katas to learn in many styles (just throw in a kick and strike after the parry - and by coincidence someone else in the comments even wrote that this was his winning combo). To improve the effectiveness of the evasion to the outside, applying pressure against the opponent's upper arm towards the chest triggers a "wait, I am about to get turned and I am not standing freely and upright how I want" interrupt in the brain, resulting in simple counterpressure (instead of a second strike), giving us precious time to take the initiative. Staying on the inside isn't that bad and even with a lot of training it still happens (or the attack was a haymaker, so we can't go there). The own hands are in proper position to just follow the arm of the opponent to his neck: striking with both arms gives us a great opportunity to finish, and even if a second haymaker comes, our striking arm is already in motion into that general direction and we have a split second to change that motion into a second defense. I doubted it a bit at first but then applied it in a training accident as my partner attacked twice instead of once. It just happened and that convinced me. Staying on the inside (but not on that very spot of course) also opens the center line, inner thigh, rear thigh and the free side of the opponent's body. It is a great opportunity. I like "the more space, the more danger": not staying close allows the opponent to kick you point blank - it just suffices to move the butt away a bit to open that gap for a perfect kick. But doing these little mistakes and finding a solution is actually good in training. Better than getting told everything.

Yes like swiping a fly off your nose quickly with the inside of your finger's and palm, a quick, sharp turn of the wrist. My Sensai taught me back in the 90's. Fantastic advice. Thanks dude.

If only Bobby Green and Beneil had mastered these ancient powers prior to last night...

Whenever I see the "cover" (palm on the head) I think "... but if they slam their fist into the back of your hand, your hand is toast." If anyone can tell me why this isn't an issue, pls share. I'm open to new information. Thx.

Since you don't know what's coming in, they're not going to tell you, I would keep my hands on decides and if I see a punch coming in, I would lower my chin so he hits my forehead instead of my nose. If your hands are covering your face. He's going to go wide if your hands are wide he's going to go for your nose there is noway to get around this

This is for higher level fighters and its even questionable then to its effectiveness in real life situations. Not saying its not effective what I am saying is the level of fight IQ required to make it effective combined with situational awareness. I can see it being effective with someone who is more of a counter puncher but in my opinion the best defense is a good offense.

Nick didnt even get hit what's up with that ? 😁

❤😮😮

haha as a kid growing had it multible times lucky i did not break my nose but if they hit you good it sting you good i think its a nerve thing if i think abouth it or the classic cartoon gettting hit so hard on your skull you see a flash like in the old carttoons but the nose thing can be hard to go on in a fight i have done it but you need like 3 to 5 seconds to recover to even block more to fight again so just surwive 10 seconds and your good.wtf typing this i am like i did grow up a bit hard to think abouth it this was all before i was 14

The police fractured my nose.

pak sau til sau

Tai Chi Chuan teaches you a lot of this naturally, which "comes out" of the body with power and speed after doing it a million times slowly.

You don't get punched in the nose but headbutted.

Personally if someone punches me i'm going berserk and i won't stop until he's down or I'm exhausted. I dont even think about defending, I'm in a zone and actually i dont think too much as it takes to much time which i don't have and my opponent is already dealing with my fury but this defense technique makes sense if you are that type of person that likes to think before moving in and not rushing your movement and saving energy👍 Just dropped a follow as this channel is on a different level🔥

A bit too late for me.. But still great advice..

Pak sau, tan sau. Practice them

Mike Tyson never knocked anyone out through their hands

Tuck your chin they will hit your forehead or move .head out way!

You ever noticed these thugs and bad guys always go to the gym to learn to hurt people? I mean who welcomes these criminals to learn how to fight? It's a disgrace.

You explain things like the events (fight) are going to happen in slow motion

But in real life its totally opposite 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😅😅😅

Just don't get punched in the nose. Duh

👍
